good or bad deal?

I was thinking about owner financing a property to a buyer and I need some help to figure out if this is a good deal or not.
I paid $235,000 for the home. Here would be the terms with the buyer:

Sales Price: $315,000 (NOT worth this. Probably worth about 260k)
Down payment: $100,000
Interest rate: 6.75% (option to raise rate in 3 years but not down)
Loan Term: 30 years
Buyers monthly payments: $1,394.49

When I crunch this into Chat GPT is says I am getting a 271.87% ROI. Which over 30 years is about 9%.
It then gives me an annualized ROI CAGR of only 3.1%??? Which sounds horrible. Is this a good or bad deal to you?

Crunch your own numbers with the equations that mean something to you. That way you'll have information that is meaningful to you so you can judge for yourself if it a good deal for you. Don't ChatGPT it. My impression is that this is a good deal for the seller, a bad deal for the buyer.
